  Sinch Verification is pay-as-you-go: you are billed per verification attempt,
  with no fixed monthly plan tier required to start. Pricing is per method and
  per country/operator. SMS verification is charged an SMS price that varies by
  country and operator. Flash call verification is charged a fixed price per
  attempt and is materially cheaper than SMS in each market (Sinch cites flash
  call as roughly 50-70% cheaper than SMS). Phone call (callout) and data
  (seamless) verification are likewise usage-priced. A free trial is available
  on sign-up. Exact per-unit rates are not reconciled here - the current price
  list is downloadable from the Sinch Build dashboard.
notes: >-
  Verification pricing lives behind the account dashboard and varies by
  destination country and operator, so specific numbers are intentionally not
  hard-coded. Verify current rates on the Sinch pricing page and the Build
  dashboard price list during reconciliation.
